By far, the best investigation show on scifi

First of all, Josh Gates is a very entertaining guy, something which has been missing from prior 'investigation' shows which scifi has aired. Amanda Tapping in Proof Positive, while a good host, was just far too serious and made the show very dry. Boston Rob in that show from last year, which I can't even recall, was obviously bored with it and falsely skeptical. It was all a show and not an overly entertaining one. Josh Gates ... he's awesome. He takes something that really does not warrant the level of serious treatment which makes people interested in cryptozoology and such things appear as weirdos and brings it down to earth. A show of this type is good for interesting people in the field of Cryptozoology. As a 30 year old who IS interested in such things, it's nice to find an entertaining, fun to watch, semi-investigative series. And it's also fun to be afraid that some of their less than smart ideas might end up with either the host or the producer seriously injured.
